Toshiba Taps IBM Software To Create More Secure And Energy-Efficient Laptops
LAS VEGAS, March 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO:6502) today announced that Toshiba's new line of enterprise laptop PCs will be integrated with IBM software, providing energy management and advanced endpoint security protection. Toshiba plans to sell the new lines of enterprise PCs and its integrated solution globally in mid-2012.

With the growing use of laptops by organizations, there are several important factors to consider, including today's 24/7 work environment that requires many users to keep laptops running around the clock—not always in power-saving modes. Stolen laptops are also one of the biggest causes of data breaches to organizations in 2011(1). This directly relates to laptops that contain confidential data requiring higher security measures to protect them if stolen or misplaced. Multiply these behaviors across all employees in an organization, and the security risks, energy costs and environmental impacts rise.
To address this, Toshiba and IBM jointly developed a better way to manage energy use and secure data in laptops. Toshiba's new line of enterprise laptop PCs will combine IBM software based on its Tivoli Endpoint Manager and Toshiba's enhanced BIOS feature to allow IT managers to apply company's specific policies for energy controls and security across PCs within an organization.
With this solution, energy usage data is measured by the PC hardware, which allows more accurate readings of power consumption. This design allows the IT staff to remotely apply each group of PCs into specific power saving modes or make peak-shift management changes as needed to deliver better energy efficiency gains. To provide better security, the Toshiba laptop PC with the IBM software provides:- Patch management capability that automatically adapts necessary patches with minimum impact for network bandwidth and IT staff's workload. A single patch management server can support up to 250,000 PCs, shortening patch times and updates without losing PC functionality, even over low-bandwidth or globally distributed networks.
- Access Control to data, which prevents PCs from starting up, being logged on and being screen-unlocked unless the PCs are authenticated by the management server. When a PC has no connection to the server, the USB portable memory with the signature file can be used to authenticate the PC instead of the server. And IT staff can protect the stored data by preventing a third party from operating a laptop when the laptop is lost or stolen. In addition, IT staff can define the policy to prohibit writing to external storage and printing when the PC is not authenticated against the management server.

The "Parlement of Foules" (also known as the "Parliament of Foules", "Parlement of Birddes", "Assembly of Fowls", "Assemble of Foules", or "The Parliament of Birds") is a poem by Geoffrey Chaucer (1343?–1400) made up of approximately 700 lines. The poem is in the form of a dream vision in rhyme royal stanza and is interesting in that it is the first reference to the idea that St. Valentine's Day was a special day for lovers.[1]
The poem begins with the narrator reading Cicero's Somnium Scipionis in the hope of learning some "certeyn thing". When he falls asleep Scipio Africanus[clarification needed] appears and guides him up through the celestial spheres to Venus's temple, after some deliberation at the gate both promising a "welle of grace" and a stream that "ledeth to the sorweful were/ Ther as a fissh in prison is al drye" (Reminiscent of Dante's "Abandon all hope ye who enter here"). The narrator then passes through Venus's dark temple with its friezes of doomed lovers and out into the bright sunlight where Nature is convening a parliament at which the birds all choose their mates. The three tercel eagles make their case for the hand of a formel eagle until the birds of the lower estates begin to protest and launch into a comic parliamentary debate, which Nature herself finally ends. None of the tercels wins the formel, for at her request Nature allows her to put off her decision for another year (indeed, female birds of prey often become sexually mature at one year of age, males only at two years). Nature, as the ruling figure, in allowing the formel the right to choose not to choose is acknowledging the importance of free will, which is ultimately the foundation of a key theme in the poem, that of common profit. Nature allows the other birds, however, to pair off. The dream ends with a song welcoming the new summer. The dreamer awakes, still unsatisfied, and returns to his books, hoping still to learn the thing for which he seeks.
Chaucer first discusses Cicero's "Scipio's Dream". Scipio travels to Africa where he meets his grandfather, Scipio Africanus and shows him Carthage. He goes on to show him the earth in comparison to the rest of the heavens. Scipio has questions for his grandfather about the heavens.
Thanne axede he if folk that had here been dede Han lyf and dwellynge in another place. And Affrican seyde, "Ye, withouten drede," And that oure present worldes lyves space Nis but a maner deth, what wey we trace; And rightful folk shul gon, after they dye, To hevene; and shewede hym the Galaxye. (lines 50-56)
This is an important lesson, because Africanus tells Scipio that if you live a good life, you will go to heaven when you die. Heaven is a place of paradise, not on earth obviously, because once a person dies, he or she is no longer on earth. There are two places one can go once he or she dies, according to Christian theology, heaven or hell. Heaven is paradise, whereas Hell is the opposite. Hell is where people are tortured and beaten senselessly for the rest of eternity. This is because they were bad people, sinners, in their lives on earth. People can learn from this to be good in life while on earth. There is not much detail about heaven or hell in this poem. At the time Chaucer wrote this poem, Christianity was the dominant faith in Europe, and perhaps one of the few faiths in Europe in the Middle Ages.
Thanne preyede hym Scipion to telle hym al The wey to come into that hevene blisse. And he seyde, "Know thyself first immortal, And loke ay besyly thow werche and wysse To commune profit, and thow shalt not mysse To comen swiftly to that place deere That ful of blysse is and of soules cleere.
But brekers of the lawe, soth to seyne, And likerous folk, after that they ben dede, Shul whirle aboute th'erthe alwey in peyne, Tyl many a world be passed, out of drede, And than, foryeven al hir wikked dede, Than shul they come into that blysful place, To which comen God the sende his grace. (lines 71-84)
There are not many references to Valentine's Day before Chaucer wrote 'The Parliament of Fowls. He describes a beautiful scene in which there are trees, lakes, streams, and more creating a very beautiful place. Many things and people are in this "Parliament of Fowls". At one point, he sees Cupid sharpening his arrows before he goes to pierce the hearts of lovers. Chaucer refers to everything within this place as a "fowl", yet not everything seems to be a foul thing. We often think of the word foul as having to do with something bad, but he describes everything in such a wonderful and positive fashion. It is unclear here what Chaucer means by the word "foul", but it is used in the form of a noun rather than the adjective we often think of today.
That is to seyn, the foules of ravyne Weere hyest set, and thanne the foules smale That eten, as hem Nature wolde enclyne, As worm or thyng of which I telle no tale; And water-foul sat lowest in the dale; But foul that lyveth by sed sat on the grene, And that so fele that wonder was to sene. (lines 323-329)
For this was on Seynt Valentynes day, Whan every foul cometh there to chese his make, Of every kynde that men thynke may, And that so huge a noyse gan they make That erthe, and eyr, and tre, and every lake So ful was that unethe was there space For me to stonde, so ful was al the place. (lines 308-315)
It is also not clear why it is called a parliament. Parliament in this day and age usually refers to a system of government, a democratic government more specifically. It is a legislative body that meets in the particular nation's capital city to discuss how the country should be run. The parliament building is the location in which the legislative body meets, making it an important gathering place. Perhaps this is what parliament means in Chaucer's poem. The "Parliament of Fowls" is the gathering place of all that is in nature, and everything is gathered on Seint Valentine's day. It is the day when lovers are supposed to meet each other, perhaps for the first time. Today, Valentine's day has become much more commercialized, especially in the United States. Also, today, it falls on the 14th of February each year. The particular date of Valentine's day is not mentioned in "The Parliament of Fowls", so it is likely that the current date for Valentine's day did not originate in this poem. Chaucer describes the lovers in this scene as the birds and their devotion to mother nature. The birds represent males and nature representing females. The birds are married to the nature, and are good to it, the way lovers should be good to each other.
There are fifteen manuscript sources for the poem:
- British Library, Harley 7333
- Cambridge University Library Gg. IV.27
- Cambridge University Library Ff. I.6 (Findern)
- Cambridge University Library Hh.IV.12 (incomplete)
- Pepys 2006, Magdalene College, Cambridge
- Trinity College, Cambridge R.3.19
- Bodleian Library, Arch. Selden B.24
- Bodleian Library, Laud Misc. 416
- Bodleian Library, Fairfax 16
- Bodleian Library, Bodley 638
- Bodleian Library, Tanner 346
- Bodleian Library, Digby 181
- St. John's College, Oxford, J LVII
- Longleat 258, Longleat House, Warminster, Wilts
William Caxton's early print of 1478 is also considered authoritative, for it reproduces the text of a manuscript now considered lost. The stemma and genealogy of these authorities was studied by John Koch in 1881, and later established by Eleanor Prescott Hammond in 1902, dividing them into two main groups, A and B (last five MSS), although the stemma is by no means definitive.
Concerning the author of the poem, there is no doubt that it was written by Geoffrey Chaucer, for so he tells us twice in his works.
- The first time is in the Introduction (Prologue) to The Legend of Good Women: "He made the book that hight the Hous of Fame, / And eke the Deeth of Blaunche the Duchesse, / And the Parlement of Foules, as I gesse".[2]
- The second allusion is found in the Retraction to The Canterbury Tales: "the book of the Duchesse; the book of Seint Valentynes day of the Parlement of Briddes".[2]
A more difficult question is that of date. Early criticism of the poem, as far as the first decades of the 20th century, relied mainly on the different interpretations of the text—comparing the fight for the female eagle with royal betrothals of the age—to produce a date of composition for the poem. Fred N. Robinson (Complete Works of Geoffrey Chaucer, 1957: 791) mentioned that "if the theories of allegory in the Parliament are rejected, the principal evidence usually relied on for dating the poem about 1381-2 disappears". Later criticism, however, is much more objective on the reasons why the poem has been dated in 1382, the main reason given in lines 117–118 of the poem itself: "As wisly as I sawe the [Venus], northe northe west / When I begane my sweuene for to write" for according to John M. Manly (1913: 279–90) Venus is never strictly in the position "north-north-west...but it can be easily thought to be so when it reaches its extreme northern point". Manly adds that this condition was met in May 1374, 1382, and 1390.
The third date is easily discarded since we know that the poem is already mentioned as composed in the Prologue to The Legend of Good Women. Derek Brewer (1960: 104) then argues that the date of 1382, as opposed to that of 1374, is much more likely for the composition of the poem since, during the same period (1373–85), Chaucer wrote many other works including The House of Fame which, in all respects, seems to have been composed earlier than "The Parliament of Fowls", thus: "a very reasonable, if not certain, date for the Parlement is that it was begun in May 1382, and was ready for St. Valentine's Day, 14th February 1383" (Brewer, 1960: 104). Although much of the criticism on the interpretation of "The Parliament of Fowls"—which would render clues for its date of composition—is contradictory, and criticism about the importance of line 117 does not agree on whether it can be taken as serious evidence for the dating of the poem, there is nowadays a general agreement among scholars as to 1381–1382 being the date of composition for "The Parliament of Fowls".

Jets Gameday - Less than meets the eye
Robert Cleave
March 05 2012 11:18AM
The Jets wrap up their extended stay at home by playing number two of Claude Noel's self-proclaimed seventeen game playoff series this evening, with the first outing having gone just about as well as anyone could have hoped. The seven-spot they posted on Thursday wasn't exactly representative of the play, but Winnipeg's had a few encounters go the other direction this year, so that night was quite possibly just the bounces evening out rather than any undue fortune at work.

Mark Scheifele, Tanner Pearson and the World Junior Hangover
Jonathan Willis
March 02 2012 03:19PM
As the World Juniors hit, they were one of the best stories in the OHL. Mark Scheifele, Winnipeg's first round pick in 2011, and the undrafted Tanner Pearson were arguably the two hottest players in junior hockey. Scheifele was scoring almost two points per game after being cut by the Jets, while Pearson was picking up a goal every game and averaging more than one assist per contest.
It wasn't a surprise when both made the roster of Team Canada at the World Juniors.
Unfortunately, since the world's biggest junior tournament, both have found their offense drying up.
5 on 1?
Robert Cleave
March 01 2012 10:30PM
Well, you don't see this every day. Winnipeg put up a converted touchdown on the Panthers this evening, and without question the most astonishing moment was the Jets' 4th goal, when a bit of timely defensive work by Blake Wheeler turned some Florida pressure into this:
Beauty. Bryan Little will never score an easier goal, and good job that he finished it, too, because they were coming right at my end of the rink, and I can guarantee you there wasn't going to be anyone back to defend if he missed.
Jets Gameday - If not now, when?
Robert Cleave
March 01 2012 02:36PM
When the schedule was drawn up last summer, tonight's Winnipeg-Florida game seemed an unlikely candidate to be a meaningful affair, with the ex-Thrashers and still-Panthers having spent last year wallowing in the depths of the Eastern Conference's second tier. Washington and Tampa were the clear heavyweights starting the season, and by this point in the year, the night seemed certain to just be another dreary encounter between two teams that would once again be relegated to playing out the string.
Of course, that's not quite how the year has unfolded, and as a result this evening's match at the Arena That Elbow Room Forgot has all the appearance of a game with actual playoff implications. With all caveats about the horrid level of the East this year noted, that's a surprising, and welcome, development.

There's no point in looking good and then cracking your egg open like you're trying to make a brain omelet, so Bern designed the Brighton EPS Women's Thin Shell Helmet to keep your noggin safe and looking fly at the same time. The ABS Hard Shell and EPS foam are certified for both bike and snow use, so you can rock it year 'round, too--just swap out the included EPS Winter Liner for the summer version when temperatures heat up. Passive vents keep your grey matter from roasting and, at just one pound, the Brighton won't give you an all-day neck workout on the slopes, either.

Established in 1980
Opened in 1980 by Kiwi ex-pat Martin Mcskimming, Hemingway's has become a Yorkville institution by providing great food and drink at great value for 31 years. I
Certainly one of Yorkville's most popular destinations. Hemingway's features a large heated patio that's great for looking down on the goings-on along Cumberland Street.

Hemingways is has over 28 years of proud heritage in prestigious Yorkville village. Enjoy over 20 types of draft beer on our rooftop patio, misted in the summer, and heated in the winter. Hemingways boast 3 bars on four floors for you dining enjoyment. We are open every night for diner until 2am and lunches Monday to Friday starting at 11am. Or join us for brunch on Sat, Sun, and holidays.
They have one of the best patios in the city! Love the food too, very affordable and huge drink selection. Gets very busy, especially during dinner and on sunny days.
A Yorkville staple, it can get rocking on the weekends (upstairs), but is also great for appetizers after work. Try the sweet potato fries, but maybe not the deep-fried shrimp. Reasonably priced for Yorkville
This place has a great patio and decent food. The prices are reasonable for Yorkville and it's always busy. Great place in the summer.
Laid back, easy going attitude reigns at Yorkville's dive. Its mainstay is its rooftop patio home to lots o' beer, sticky floors, plastic patio chairs. With no room to move around the bar, mingle your way around big buck business crowd and down to earth celebs without the pretension. Colin Farrell sightings have been known. In the winter, warm up in dim lighting and what looks like 80s cabin... more
Hemingway's rooftop patio (heated in the winter, and cool misted in the summer) is a popular Yorkville spot to meet for drinks after work. The restaurant downstairs also offers upscale bar fair at decent prices and generous portions.
Great place to go for drinks; good atmosphere. Prices are pretty decent and the appetizers are great!
Hemingway's is a solid pub w/ great greasy food and great beers on tap.
I arrived in Toronto at midnight and walked around my hotel for a quick bite. Not only was Hemingway's open till 2, their burger and fries were absolutely decision.

Dissatisfied with the Cumberland Mojito. It's described as having brown sugar and simple syrup; but the drink is tart! It's just not a good mojito :(
Not worth the $9.51 plus tax.
Hemingways has established itself as the famous hot spot and rooftop patio to enjoy drinks and good company any night of the week. It is a conscious effort on the part of the owners to bring a little bit of New Zealand to Toronto. Hemingways is the place where you'll find Hollywood's elite gathered while in town.

Tucked away in the heart of Toronto's Yorkville neighbourhood is this double-decker, roof-top patio (heated in winter and misted in summer). The popular patio and bar is a great place to meet for a night on the town or a drink after work with friends.

Having just purchased the Fisher Paykel TL washer, I am unsure about the best type of detergent. FP includes a small pack of Tide regular detergent with the machine, but I am wondering, since it is a high effeciency machine, whether it would be better to use an HE detergent?
Any information and advice would be appreciated. Trailrider |

Battlefield 3
Wow! Rumors of Battlefield 3 have been floating around the internet for 2-3 years now, but there was never any official word from Electronic Arts until June 2009, when, during a financial call, Battlefield 3 was said to be a game that was "looking very good".
Not much of an announcement for such an anticipated title, right?
Since then, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 was released with quite high critical acclaim and sales. The support for the game has been adequate, considering the lag issues that never quite seem to be solved. The VIP map packs added new breath into the game, but were too slow to come out, or at times added too little content.
The prospect of a Bad Company 1 map pack seem grim, despite Electronic Arts asking if we would like Bad Company 1 maps, via the Battlefield facebook page. But Vietnam is on the horizon, what can we expect from that?
The Vietnam expansion will have 4 maps with Rush and Conquest, and will include vietnam-era weapons and vehicles. I can see EA charging $30 for the expansion (as the expansion for Dragon Age Origins -- Awakening -- was priced at $30) But is 30$ too much? From the sounds of it, there will be no single-player content, but if the each of the four maps support Rush, Conquest, Squad Rush, and Squad DM, and there are all of the vietnam weapons and vehicles, I think they can justify a $25 price-point.
So, what do you think about Vietnam? How much content would you want if EA were to charge $30?
Back to Battlefield 3...
So, Battlefield 3 got one poor announcement via a financial call, and now it get's announced via a beta-key tie in with the upcoming Medal of Honor?
So what's the deal with Battlefield 3, does EA not want to properly announce the game? They could have announced it at E3 with a trailer, but I am guessing they either A) did not want to over-saturate their conference with shooters or B) Battlefield 3 is not ready to show. At all.
I am leaning towards option B. Since nothing has been shown of Battlefield 3, and EA is being hesitant to talk about it, I am guessing it is in the early stages, despite being developed since 2009. Clearly someone at EA has some doubts about Medal of Honor, and decided that packing in a beta key for Battlefield 3 would help sales. From the looks of it, MoH needs all the help it can get on the multiplayer side of things.
Anyways... let's talk about Battlefield 3, shall we?
Up next... Battlefield 3.

An umbrella stoller by Maclaren.
The easy traveler gives you the convenience of a snap in stroller frame with the fold, push and basket of a Mac.
Accommodating a plethora of infant seats, including the popular Key Fit 30, the Mac ET is packed full of fantastic features while only using a tiny portion of trunk space.
A large basket, tall handles and built on cup holder along with the smooth glide of a Mac places the ET far above the competition. The wide frame and attached strap hold the infant seat securely and make the ET less tippy than the Volo.
I can't think of a single negative!
What did you think of this review?

Cosmologists Show Negative Mass Could Exist In Our Universe
Re:Negative mass- not antimatter, but odd (214 comments)
I don't know very little about the subject, but I have a question and a speculation.
The question is what would happen in an encounter of 2 objects with symmetrical masses?
The speculation is about negative mass and antimatter... What if, somehow, negative mass was more attracted to antimatter? Could that explain why there is so little antimatter around?

Immortal Sergeant
Just a few months before entering the Service in a real-life role, Henry Fonda starred in this movie as a shy, self-doubting corporal who is thrust into a life-and-death position of leadership when his sergeant is killed. The danger and hardship of desert warfare are brought vividly and realistically to life in this production, one of the better war movies made during World War 2, Co-starring Maureen O'Hara, Immortal Sergeant is as thrilling as it is inspirational.

I did a similar set up with my GF and I lost as well. I got spanked, losing all my ships and only doing light damage to her shields. My biggest problem was using my upgrades...I was always getting into positions where I couldn't use the HLC (because I moved too quickly) or being forced out of formations by asteroids, etc.
The dice lords also frowned upon be that day, but I had failed to plan for my upgrades/abilities.
I would try HLC+Merc Co-Pilot, then try to hang back and use the HLC as often as possible. Also, choose a target and stick with it. I would focus on the falcon unless you get a great opportunity to blast one of her homies.


text: Okay so the other night i went out to dinner with my boyfriend. We went to a mongolian BBQ buffet. UH OH. Well I stayed away from all the fried stuff and pasta and rice. So pretty much i had seafood, sushi and 1 piece of cheesecake. I ate much more than i had intended too. Then i had a wedding there was lots of greek food there. Some good for you some horrible. I had one small piece of cake and 2 fuzzy navels. Okay so the real point of this is i have been stuck at 212 for what seems like FOREVER. Im gunna guess and say 2months. So i weigh today and im down to 210!:carrot: Also this week i had rallys and DQ (some of you may have read my post on how i had a epiphany) and so i did listen to my body and i didnt go over board. But how is it that i lost? Could this mean that i need to up my calories??? I was at 1600, then i stopped losing so i went to 1,500 and still nothing. Im 20 yrs old, 5'5 and 210. I didnt think it was possible that i needed to eat more than 1600 a day. Also i worl out 5 days a week. 2 hours of yoga, 3 hours of Zumba, 2-3 hours of strength. Suggestions?

The grass was still dark green. The hashes still looked freshly painted. It'd only been five minutes since the Saturday game started, and North Carolina's offense was taking the field for the first time. Quarterback Marquise Williams stood in a shotgun formation, set to take a quick three-step drop and toss the ball out to the left flat, near where Aaron Donald was crouching across the left guard's outside shoulder.
Donald, Pittsburgh's fourth-year senior, was known for disturbing the backfield peace. That's why when the play began, it wasn't a surprise the Tar Heels assigned the left guard and center to him despite the nose tackle being closer to the center. But even two blockers weren't going to silence Donald on this day.
When he stood up from his usual three-technique, he burst forward from a three-point stance and swung his right arm over to slice the combination block in half. His 285-pound frame blew by the blockers before a brief stumble, one that he leveraged into an explosive leap and pass deflection that led to an interception.
This was only the beginning. After the initial ground-shaking devastation he caused with that play, after effects kept coming through the core of the UNC infrastructure, as he ripped through every damn blocker in the way and the one player that stood tallest in the backfield on every play.
He penetrated past linemen with forehead furrowing quickness and jolting hand technique, the best ways he knew how. One of his finer plays came only two plays after the opener.
It was third-and-long, and Donald flipped from the front's right to its left. He was still a three-technique, only this time outside the right guard's shoulder. Truth be told, it didn't matter — he was going to raise hell against whoever he wanted to.
As the play unfolded, he propelled his body off his right leg, shook his hips and sunk his shoulder as he crossed the face of the blocker. At the sinking of his left cleat, his left half leaned in. With his arm jammed into the opponent's breast plate, he circled around the blocker until the latter couldn't keep up anymore. The blocker's hands slipped off his back, and his left arm was freed, allowing him to stick his cleat in the ground deeper and wrap around the corner to engulf the quarterback as the ball was thrown away. (:15)
By the beginning of the second half, the grass' color waned, especially in between the hashes, where the once freshly painted hashes lost their color too. One could surmise a reason: the loss of color came from the blockers and quarterbacks constantly being on the ground after dealing with Donald, or maybe his cleats ripping the field up. Either way, it painted a dim picture that mirrored the third-and-10 the Tar Heels faced less than a minute into the half.
Donald was back on the right side, again at the three-technique. Williams was again in a shotgun set, but despite the additional room from center, he'd have little time to decide where he was going with the ball.
Donald exploded off the line and there was no fanciness to his game. It wasn't about quickness or turning the corner with his mind-bending 1.59 10-yard split. He was going directly through the left guard.
He leaned in with his upper body as he struck the blocker, jolting him back and then extending his arms to create separation. Next was his legs, which cut through the grass and powered the blocker back to the quarterback at a rapid rate. Seeing Williams raise his shoulder up to throw the ball, Donald left his feet and attempted to block the throw. He fell short, but his impact was nonetheless felt (4:49).
The terror only stopped when the clock ran out. By the end, Donald registered five hurries, a sack, a pass deflection and a 9.0 on football's Richter scale.
His quickness and technique reigned superior not only on that day against UNC, but on many others too. It's why he's a highly rated prospect, one who could very well be a top-15 selection come May. It certainly wouldn't be a surprise because teams are in desperate need of pass rushers, especially ones on the interior that can quickly disturb a quarterback's pocket on a quick drop. As more and more teams use a quick game to speed up the movement of the ball, those who are closest to the ball and the passer are going to be more valued.
With Donald possessing an ideal 3-technique skill-set, his value should be sky-high.

Johnny Lewis Dead: Inside the Alleged 'Sons of Anarchy' Killer's Home (PHOTOS)
Before it became the scene of a bloody rampage allegedly carried out by Sons of Anarchy actor Johnny Lewis, the Los Feliz, Calif. home the 28-year-old shared with his elderly landlord was a writer's retreat that has been home to many of Hollywood's notable actors, directors and muscians.
For 35 years, Catherine Davis, 81, had rented out homes -- including her own -- to those who came to Los Angeles with dreams of making it big.
Dubbed the "Writers' Villa", Davis' home -- where Lewis also lived at the time of their deaths -- "is a rambling Spanish home in Los Angeles, set up for creative people".
Which celebs also lived at the home nestled in the Hollywood Hills?
White Collar actor Matt Bomer, Hung star Thomas Jane and Parker Posey have all called either the house at 3605 Lowry Road, or its guest quarters, their home during their careers.
Notable directors including Gossip Girl's Michael Fields, General Hospital's Scott McKinsey and The Good Wife's Joshua Marston have also stayed in the home overlooking the Hollywood sign.
Lewis had stayed at Davis' home previously and had not caused the elderly woman any problems, Davis' friend and co-worker Maryann Kuk revealed exclusively to Celebuzz.
"Not at all, he had stayed at the house before," Kuk said. "I'm sure the police have a better idea [why he did this]."
Lewis had been arrested three times this year -- twice for violent assaults. Yet his landlord lived peacefully alongside him in her own home in the multi-million dollar neighborhood overlooking the Hollywood sign.
"She lived there as her home, and she made it home for many other people," added Kuk.
"The apartment is fully furnished and supplied with bedding, towels, kitchenware, etc. has free Wi-Fi access to the Internet and a large screen HD TV with Direct-TV service.
"All the comforts of a home-away-from-home in a lush garden setting."
Police are still piecing together what happened at the Los Feliz home Wednesday morning.
Police were called to the home around 10.30 a.m. where they found Lewis dead on the driveway and inside found Davis who died of what appears to be blunt force trauma. Davis' cat had also reportedly been beaten to death.
Police allege Lewis killed Davis and then assaulted a neighbor and his handyman.

The hills are alive with the sound of infant creole cries. Solange springs into action for the photo spread that accompanies her Time Out New York cover story.
She lists Opening Ceremony as her favorite Empire State place to shop at but doesn't have to leave the comfort of home for her current retail obsession.
PHOTOS: Check out 16 pictures of Solange's mane moves throughout the years
"I love Net-a-Porter but it's a gift and a curse," she said revealing her favorite place to shop online. "It is such an addictive drug, to be able to wake up in the morning, order a pair of shoes, and they are at your door four hours later. I made the biggest mistake of introducing that to my sister, and she's just been out of control . . . out of control. It's just out of control."
Memaw Muffuletta gets top honors as her style icon.
"I'm inspired by my mother from the '70s and '80s–she looked like a walking American Apparel ad. She definitely set the bar in terms of style. I'm also inspired by Björk, Erykah Badu and Diana Ross. I gravitate to the people who have stood the test of time; that's why so many of my style icons are older. If you can conquer that many decades and that many trends and still look timeless and beautiful—that's where I'd like to be."

The New England Firebirds 14U softballers lost yesterday, 9-6, at the World Series in Williamsburg, Va., but they're not dead yet.
The Firebirds' girls, based out of Ripp City Basball & Softball Academy in Bradford, went 2-1 in pool play on Monday and Tuesday.
After a convincing 12-0 win on Monday, the lost 9-1 to the Virginia Rage earlier in the day on Tuesday to finish 1-1 in pool play.
But the Firebirds bounced back later on Tuesday with a 9-8 win over the South Carolina Riptide, overcoming a 5-1 deficit through two innings.
But Jessica Licata, of Methuen, started off a thrilling six-run rally in the bottom of the third inning.
After the Riptide then went ahead again, 8-6, in the top of the fourth, Bryanna Michitson hit a bases-loaded double scoring two more runs, tying the game at 8-8.
Krystal Morales, of Lawrence, was the offensive player of the game with a homer and triple.
Morales also scored the game-winning run with an incredible head-first slide into home plate in the bottom of the fifth inning. Michaela Kane, of Haverhill, had another stellar game defensively, turning an unassisted double play to end the Riptide chance of scoring the go-ahead run and making spectacular plays at shortstop.
Jillian Aziz, of Plaistow, N.H., went the distance on the mound with a strong performance.
Yesterday, the Firebirds played their second game in the winners bracket against the Michigan Turnin 2 team. The Firebirds lost, 9-6,
"Our backs are against the wall at this point," said Firebirds head coach Ed Aziz. "But we are OK with it. Our girls have come together all season long, when we weren't considered contenders. And now we are playing in our first World Series with 40 of the best teams from around country."
The Firebirds play today at 4 p.m.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Members Southern General The General The trio is the tree member leaders of a criminal-syndicate in Arcana. The Trio is lead by the General (Malcolm Greymater) the General is a Civil War veteran for the Southern States who has somehow lived to the present day. His body is deformed perhaps to his great age somewhat zombie-like in appearance. He has a machine that reincarnate recently dead people but depending on how long they have been dead he is only somewhat successful. the stronger people that he resurrects he keep in his gang the weaker mind ones he sells off as slaves. He has even sold woman into sexual slavery. He really believes he is a good person and not set out to do evil. He wants to make the world a better place. he is also loyal to his fellow members Towering Chris and Trixie. Towering Chris and Ghost Towering Chris Towering Chris in the the brute force of the group. She is six and a half feet tall and able to bend steel in her hands. She even carries gauntlets that allow her to grab the Ghost and hold on to her without her phasing. Unfortunately for her Ghost was able to phase a Civil War book in her head that messed up her brain. Coral King Coral "Trixie" King is a shape shifter who prefers to have the appearance of the legendary Medusa. She can also use her pheromones to sway people to do things they might not have done otherwise. In Trikie's main form she has a head of snakes just like Medusa and one on the snakes has a poisonous bite. History Two on Towering One The Trio worked in Arcadia for a long time and were very successful in making new gang members out of the dead they found. They even had a hoard of zombies that they would set loose on anyone who would mess with them. They also sold zombies off as slaves to make money for the gang. Everything was going well until Oracle and Batgirl showed up from Gotham City and made friends with the Ghost. The three of them with the help of an army lead by Two-Face was enough to bring the Trio gang down. The head three members were able to escape however and at least considered going to Metropolis to set up their gang again. The only major problem was helping Towering Chris who had a large Civil War book half phased in her head by the ghost. Leaving her mentally damaged.

You're rushing to get out the door for that important interview. You grab that suit or dress out of your closet and throw it on only to discover it has a gigantic crease right down the middle. Nothing can put you in a foul mood like finding out that your clothing is wrinkled when you don't have time to fix it. Thankfully, a good set of hangers can keep you looking prim and proper for everyday dress and those special occasions.
The type of clothing matters.
Some clothing can do just fine with wire hangers while others will need thicker or softer hangers to prevent creases from forming. A typical men's dress shirt will do just fine sitting on that metal hanger, but a suit jacket will need a larger hanger shaped to follow the seams. You'll typically get one with the jacket if you bought it new, but you can find plenty online specifically for sports or suit jackets if you lost it. A lot of women's dresses can get creased if placed on wire hangers and can also fall right off if they get jostled at all. Choose larger plastic hangers or use clips to ensure that they stay the hanger and off the floor.
Consider the size of your closet space.
If you've got a pair of dress pants you will need either a larger plastic hanger or a metal hanger with a small tube of cardboard on the bottom. Both of these spread out the area touching the clothing, meaning that there is less pressure on the pants which prevents the creases from forming. Thankfully this can actually let you save space in your closet. Try matching your shirts and pants on the hanger to cut the number of items you need hang up. If space is really a problem there are also multi-rod hangers that can let you hang several pairs of pants at once. Clothing clips can be especially useful for the multi-rod hangers by helping to keep the pants in place when you take one of them out.
A few purchases can save you a ton of space in your closet while ensuring you look great for that meeting, interview, or date. With a little bit of time and effort you can turn even a tiny closet into a space-saving marvel for all your clothing.

JALANDHAR: For this old couple it will be the loss of their third child if Balwant Singh Rajoana is hanged on March 31. Jaswant Singh and Surjit Kaur, Rajoana's foster parents, who saw their only hope in him, have already lost a daughter and a son during terrorism days in Punjab, and now after a gap of around two decades they may lose another family member.
"Even as Rajoana was awarded death sentence, my husband and I always hoped that someday he would return to us and we would have his support at this age. My husband is extremely upset and does not know what to say after the date of his hanging was announced," she told TOI on Tuesday, the day when a Chandigarh court ordered that the hanging would take place as scheduled.
However, the couple appears to be caught in a dilemma as Surjit said, "When we look at his spirit of sacrifice and exceptional courage in welcoming the gallows, we don't want to show any weakness." The couple had gone through a harrowing experience of insult at the hands of the police.

I posted somewhere else but I want to be sure I get an answer as quickly as possible. I inherited a hibiscus that a friend of mine had in her pond. After she died her daughter gave me the plant and I have no idea what to do with it now that it is done blooming. Should I leave it in the pond all winter or take it in the house a little later. Cut it back? or leave it as it. Store it in sunlight or in a storage area with no light? Guess I'm going to need step by step instructions on this. I would love to keep this alive as the flowers were beautiful. thanks in advance for any help you can give me. BT |

Once again, we're sliding into the next election, starting to hear from candidates who are gearing up to run in the General Election in November. We'll be looking at a variety of candidates for this election: if you know of any you think we should consider, please contact either Carl Nyberg (who is the chair of our Candidates Committee) or another Steering Committee member – or bring it up to us at a meeting. One of the prime ways to see change happen is through the election process: electing good people to office is part of the equation in creating change.
Congratulations to NDFA Steering Committee member Theresa Mah for getting elected to the Kelly High School LSC with the most votes of any candidate!
You don't really think that elections ever end in Illinois, do you? No, they really don't. In the city of Chicago, we have Local School Council elections this week, and though NDFA did not endorse in the LSC races this year, there are several candidates who would appreciate your help if you live in their areas:
Theresa Mah (Steering Committee member) is running for LSC at Thomas Kelly High School (4136 S. California) and was endorsed by Progressive Alliance PAC.
Alonso Zaragosa, who ran for committeeman in the 31st Ward, is running for LSC at Lloyd Elementary School, near Armitage and Cicero, and also for LSC at Kelvyn Park High School (4343 West Wrightwood Avenue).
Long time member Joe Laiacona is running for LSC at Theodore Roosevelt High School in Albany Park (Wilson and Kimball).
NDFA member and Raise Your Hand Board Member Jill Wohl sent the following recommendations for some north side LSC's:
Amundsen High School (corner of Damen and Foster):
My apologies for being delinquent in writing for a few weeks: it's been nearly two weeks since the election, and it felt like we could all use a bit of a break post-election.
With the end of the primary just six days away, we are entering the critical phase: voters are really paying attention and all our campaigns need as much help as we can give them. (Side note: Thursday, March 15 is the last day of early voting – if you haven't voted yet, please get out and vote!)
At the meeting on Tuesday, we heard from representatives from all our adopted campaigns, who gave updates on the campaign, and asked for help – if we want to see these folks win their primaries, now is the time to show support. We also voted to endorsed Kevin Allen, running for State Senate in the 23rd District in DuPage County – he's running against two other candidates for the pleasure of running against the Republican in the general.
Our monthly meeting is coming up – last one before the election!
For a number of years, NDFA has produced a Judicial Ratings Voting Guide. We combine the rankings of the various Bar Associations, highlight the ones with negatives from 80% or more of the Bar Associations, and encourage voters to make up their own minds on who to vote for. We put our sources for the rankings on the sheet, so if voters wish to follow up they may -- often the Bar Associations will give the reasons for their rankings on their websites.
After an early attempt, NDFA has long had a policy of not endorsing judges: we don't attempt to evaluate the candidates ourselves, nor do we hear from judicial candidates at our meetings. Judicial candidates are welcome to come and talk to members informally during our social hour.
This time, the Judicial Guide has stirred up some controversy. At least two members have emailed me with their surprise over the rankings of one of the candidates. One stated:
Because we are in the countdown to Election Day, there are more and more events every week for all our candidates – it's hard to keep up. There is no time more critical for our candidates: we need to help get out the vote and make change. It's when people don't vote that things stay the same: the status quo likes low voter turnout. When voters turn out at the polls, change happens. And what we need is to make sure our voters are getting out and voting – because it's not just any change we want to see happen, it's progressive change with candidates who will move the conversation, the state, and the country forward – not backward into the 19th Century (and listening to some of the Republican candidates and elected officials in the last week, the 19th Century might be a generous estimate of how far back they want to set us: anybody longing for the feudal system?).
Countdown to Election Day – early voting started today! This is when everything we do becomes absolutely critical in getting out the vote and making a difference for our candidates. Our members voted to adopt two more candidates, with the vote being final last week: John Arena is now adopted in his race for committeeman (Sandra Verthein is the liaison for his campaign) and Rudy Lozano Jr. is adopted in his race for state representative (Theresa Mah is the liaison for his campaign). We also voted to endorse Anne Shaw in her race for committeeman of the 1st Ward. Congratulations to all these candidates!
Meanwhile, there are events, events, events to attend and work on. Here are a few upcoming in the next week:
We're a month away from Election Day – and early voting start on February 27, so we're running out of time quickly now before the votes will start rolling in and counted. It's more important than ever to get out and work if we want to see our candidates elected.

I planted a Thai basil almost 6 weeks ago. It was a short plant about 6" tall with flowers. I cut off all the flowers to 2 sets of leaves below the flowers. The flowers grew back and the plant remains short. Is this normal for a Thai basil? I bought it for the leaves but it does not seem to want to grow. Any suggestions how I can get it to grow bigger? |

My thai basil never grows very tall, definitely less than a foot tall. I grow it every year (variety "Siam Queen"). Maybe in a different climate it grows differently but that I can't say. I just suspect it is natured to be smaller than the behemoth sweet basils. FataMorgana |
How do you make a tea from tulsi basil I am currently growing it and would appreciate any suggestions sent to my email firstname.lastname@example.com |
So maybe I should be growing more than 1 plant if I want to use the leaves often. |
- Posted by fatamorgana Zone 5/6 (My Page) on Wed, Jul 14, 10 at 15:48
rose1981, thai basil is not tulsi which is another name for holy basil. And as far as tulsi tea, just like you would for any other leafy herbal tea. Just add hot water. kal2022, yup. More than one plant is needed. I like using it in pho (Vietnamese noodle soup). Makes me hungry just thinking of it. FataMorgana |
Hi fatamorgana, I used it in a salad with balsamic vinegar, olive oil and garlic. Yummmm... I like its taste better than regular basil. |
- Posted by fatamorgana Zone 5/6 (My Page) on Thu, Jul 15, 10 at 10:46
Oh, yeah! Thai basil blows regular basil away in my opinion too! FataMorgana |
Thai basil tends to sprawl wider than Italian basil and stay shorter. In my experience once Thai basil flowers it is very difficult to get it growing again. When mine starts making seed I just scuff up the soil around it and let it reseeed itself. |
Maybe that is why my Thai basil is not growing much. I did not let it go to seed but it still remains pretty small. |
